Personal Life

"Alongside anti-vaccine conspiracy theorist Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Biel publicly lobbied in June 2019 against California's vaccination bill that would limit medical exemptions from vaccinations without approval from a state public health officer.[64][65][66]" Do we really need to know the biased opinion of USA Todays' view of Robert F. Kennedy in this article? The whole first phrase can be dropped to "Biel publicly lobbied in June 2019 against California's vaccination bill that would limit medical exemptions from vaccinations without approval from a state public health officer.[64][65][66]" — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:558:FE21:7F:96:97:60:71 (talk) 22:49, 8 February 2022 (UTC)

It's a fact, not a "biased opinion". See also [1]. --Hob Gadling (talk) 08:58, 3 August 2022 (UTC)

It's quite clearly an attempt at character assassination. It ignores issues such as bodily autonomy and democratic choice, as well as side effects, and instead turns them all into a reductio ad absurdam. The fact you use a website called "loons" as evidence shows that you aren't very liberal in this regard yourself. I've had over twenty shots myself. I wasn't very keen to have AstraZeneca (the only one the NHS here would offer me) after it had been withdrawn in Canada and Hungary over safety issues. Anyone who wants forcible injections, let alone camps, is anti-democratic. I hope you didn't, did you?

Removed sentence from the lead

I have removed this sentence from the lead : "The series is the longest-running series that aired on The WB channel and the longest-running family drama in television history". As it is irrelevant for a biography article, and also because it is doubtful (source is a press release with more than 15 years old, see for example List of longest-running scripted American primetime television series and List of longest-running American television series).

I agree. Emir of Wikipedia (talk) 20:56, 8 March 2022 (UTC)

Thank you, Alexcalamaro. Other biographies would benefit from removal of content from leads when that content does not add anything about the subject of the article. Eddie Blick (talk) 17:28, 10 March 2022 (UTC)
